Notes.
For some time past careful readers of the
Tribune and Journal might have seen off III
one corner a cigar advertisement Of j. c.
Joyslin 4 Co.. stating that the firm was the
authorized agent of G. Florez, formerly B.
Garcia & Co., of New York and Chicago.
This advertisement has, it appears, stirred
up hornets nest about the ears of JOyslln
d Co., and an injunction has been issued
restraining the two papers from longer pub
fishing it under penalty OF lncurrlng the
displeasure of the court. 1t appears from
the complaint that B. Garcia & Co. are the
owners of certain brand Of cigars. This
brand being Flor de B. Garcia IL Co."
The complaint goes on to say that G.
Florez was not formerly B. Garcia Il Co.,
and never had the right to adopt that name;
that the effect and intention OF the adver-
tisement in the two papers is to represent
to the public that G.. FloreZ is either the
successor to or does continue the business
of manufacturing cigars formerly done by
him under the name of 3. Garcia IL Co.,
all OF which is false and untrue. and to de-
ceive the public into believing that there is
at present no such firm as B. Garcia " Co."
1t is alleged that the defendants were asked
to discontinue the publication OF the adver-
tisement. but refused to do so. The matter
was taken before Judge Rea, who at once
issued temporary injunction.
DISSOLUTION ASKED.
Gardner S. Butler has sued James Rob-
erts, j. NJ. Butler r. Ii. WickS and John
Peatte. his associates in business, for a
dissolution of partnership and the appoint
ment of a receiver. In his complaint he
saws that they went into partnership in
1885, the defendants furnishing the money
and the plaintiff the experience. The
value of the stock Of goods on hand is
placed at SO, 600, and there is an accumu-
lated surplus i'll the business over and above
the interests of the defendants OF $40 900,
which the plaintiff claims belongs wholly
to him under the agreement. He alleges
that the defendants refuse TO permit him to
longer carry on the business and refuse to
recognize his rights and threaten TO eject
him from the store and deprive him of all
his rights. The business has been con-
Quoted under the name of the U. t. K.
clothing house, and both the name and the
stand are of considerable value. Mr.. But
Ter saws that by reason of the threats and
assertions of the defendants it is impoSsi-
bic to carry on the business. He wants a
receiver appointed and an injunction issued
restraining the defendants from interfer-
ing,
